Stripe for hospitality, travel, and leisure
Grow your revenue from booking to back office
From guest bookings to vendor payouts to seamless upsells, run your hospitality, travel, or leisure business on a single platform that can help you drive growth at every stage of the traveler journey.
The opportunity
Grow trust and loyalty with every booking
In the travel and hospitality industry, poor booking experiences can lead to abandoned reservations. Fast and flexible payment experiences are an opportunity to build loyalty.
Reduce booking friction
Let travelers choose how they want to pay—from installments to local payment methods. Securely store their preferred payment methods and offer relevant upsells to make each experience more valuable.
Increase revenue with new products and services
Build new revenue streams with ancillary services and flexible billing models—such as in-destination upsells and memberships—or by monetizing your platform through payments-as-a-service and lending.
